LAS-BEAM speakers deliver superior sound

Seamlessly compatible with PRAESENSA, LAS-BEAM column loudspeakers combine state-of-the-art beam-steering technology with high-quality sound performance for voice evacuation, music, and announcements. The new LAS-BEAM family of steerable active line-array loudspeakers have been created to offer seamless integration and superior sound from compact and elegant design. Offering outstanding audio quality in combination with active beam steering technology, LAS-BEAM powered column speakers provide an ideal solution to achieve high speech intelligibility for critical applications, such as transport hubs, commercial buildings, large retail spaces, sports facilities, cruise ships, and houses of worship.

Powerful feature set

The LAS-BEAM columns are made in Germany and comprise of two loudspeakers – LAS-BEAM-S and LAS-BEAM-L – as well as associated brackets, extender sets and a configuration interface. The smallest 50cm (19.7”) high LAS-BEAM-S features four 3.5” drivers, each powered by a dedicated 100W amplifier channel with processing via an on-board DSP module. This creates a single, steerable beam with a typical throw of 15m.

The larger, 90cm (35.4”) tall LAS-BEAM-L features eight 3.5” drivers, each powered by a dedicated 100W amplifier channel with processing via an on-board DSP module. This creates one or two steerable sound beams with a typical throw of 25m. LAS-BEAM-L can also be stacked to form a LAS-BEAM-XL (2 pieces -L) up to a LAS-BEAM-4XL (5 pieces -L). The stacked versions provide up to four steerable beams and coverage up to 70m. Both column speakers offer a frequency range of 70Hz to 18kHz, providing superior audio performance beyond life safety requirements and making it suitable for background music.

The configuration interface, with its easy-to-use software, allows integrators to generate the ideal sound beams for the application, in real time. The software also allows the EQ and delay to be set accordingly.

Maximum sound pressure level setting

This setting has main focus on the Sound Pressure Level and therefor introduces some side lobes. When the units are installed in an open space this setting can be applied to reach higher SPL.

Minimum side lobe setting

This setting has main focus on creating an efficient beam with minimizing the number of side lobes. When the units are installed close to hard surfaces like glass or concrete, this setting will minimize reflections. As an effect the SPL will decrease.

Simple installation

LAS-BEAM active line-array speakers are engineered for simple integration. The small form factor makes the units very easy to transport and install. All models also provide Phoenix connectors and RJ45 connectors for simple and secure cabling and control. The convenient wall mount bracket makes it straightforward to install the LAS-BEAM active columns in any venue. The bracket provides integrators with the ability to horizontally rotate and aim the loudspeakers to ensure coverage is in the right areas.

PA/VA integration with high redundancy options

On top of the simple integration with the PRAESENSA PA/VA system, the LAS-BEAM family offer reliability for integrators with a variety of redundancy options. To maximize system availability, integrators can choose a range of wiring setups for input channels A and B to ensure operation in case of any fault. This redundancy makes the LAS-BEAM family a perfect fit for voice alarm installations. With models like the LAS-BEAM-S and stackable LAS-BEAM-L, the series offers flexibility and adaptability, allowing tailored sound solutions for spaces of any size. Designed for efficiency, its lightweight, slim form factor ensures easy installation and unobtrusive integration into any setting. Whether ensuring speech intelligibility or delivering rich audio experiences, LAS-BEAM has been engineered to meet the highest standards.
